All Boruto Anime Episode Canon

[Apollonir.Scale]

I think that the post-Baryon mode chapters should be canon. In the 2nd Chunin Exams, which is a filler arc, Konohamaru leaves the leadership of Team 7 and Sarada becomes the new captain of Team 7 since she is promoted to chunin in the chunin exams. In the manga, when Kawaki and Boruto are about to fight, he separates them and says "You can't fight, I am the captain of this team". Similarly, the new 8th Kara member Ōga also appears in the post-Baryon mode chapters.


The scene where Konohamaru leaves Team 7

Considering that Konohamaru is the assistant Hokage on TBV, I think the author wanted such a scene to be made on purpose. This shows that the anime's episodes after 216 are also canon. Instead of adding the events of Konohamaru leaving Team 7 and Sarada being promoted to captain in order not to fall behind in the manga, he added this to the anime. In this way, the story progressed faster in the manga and people had to follow the anime in order not to get too far from the story. An important character such as the 8th Kara Oga was also added to the anime, which was never mentioned in the manga. Victor's fight with Orochimaru was not in the manga, it is only shown in the manga how he was killed by Kashin Koji.

All episodes of the anime are canon:

The first 216 episodes of the anime are already considered canon. This CRT is for the episodes after 216.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

sure, no statement has been made since kodachi left that the anime isnt canon, and Ikemoto has not made any mention either of it no longer being canon (despite being of those that original said as such), in fact he created an entire promotional art for the himawari arc.

that being said just like the the boruto movie novel and so on, these should all be secondary in terms of support, any info that contradicts the manga is no bueno.

 

[LordGriffin1000]

Don't we already treat the anime as canon already unless it contradicts the manga? I don't recall our Baruto standards regarding this topic and I'm not up to date.

only till 216, this just extends it to 293.

 

[HelloThere1089]

Nötr for now. I might look into it further and change my vote. (or if you say pretty please)

 

[Apollonir.Scale]

Yes, as Shadow said, this CRT is about the canon of the episodes after 216. If episode 281 becomes canon, we can use Oga's feats. I haven't watched the episodes with a character named Oga, but if I remember correctly, someone mentioned in the discussion thread that it was a 4-A feat. That's why this CRT is important.

My brother our votes don't count no one is telling you please.

there is no 4-A feat because the anime as support debunks the statement

Pretty pwease


Anyway, I pretty much agree with Shadow.

Damn.. Anyway, maybe in the future, having all episodes of the anime be canon will be useful when proving something else. What happened after episode 216 that we can call important? Kagura died, the 2nd Chunin Exams happened, I don't know anything else.

sure, it expands on characters scaling and abilities that either dont appear in the manga or dont have much screen time
for example pre timeskip himawari having some stuff to scale too instead of being unknown/

but no theres no secret insane scaling chain that would effect the god tiers by this being supplementary canon

 

[Suigetsuhyugs]

what 4-A feat is that? I don't remember any of that

 

[HelloThere1089]

Isn't the realm shaking statement a hype text anyways?

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

It's 1000% hyperbolic.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

oh it also gives us one of the Kara members that were eluded in the manga but never appeared.

Good. Without Karma can we measure Kawaki's power from Sarada and Cho Cho?

 

[Apollonir.Scale]

If Without Karma Kawaki and Without Karma Code are Low 6-B, I will try Prime Hiruzen Low 6-B.

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

All this scaling talk is just derailing this thread. Save it for later, if this goes through.

Okay. Now, do you and Shadow think that chapters after 216 can be considered canon as long as they don't contradict the manga? Accordingly, I will write to Agree by writing "(as long as they don't contradict the manga)"

 

[Damage3245]

I'm 90% sure there was a discussion at some point about having separate anime & manga canons / profiles. I'm guessing that went nowhere there.

 

[HelloThere1089]

Iirc that was to canonize RTN movie and get the verse to tier 2. Since that seems to have not worked out, I doubt anybody has the time and energy to separate the profiles. Instead having all available materials in a priority order seems to be the way to go. Especially since the authors themselves cross reference these seperate medias pretty often.

 

[Nierre]

that sarada statement is a good catch ngl

as long as there's no contradictions then this is fine.

if this is accepted I can update the profiles with the scaling in future crts

 

[Testarossa002]

all I'm hearing is a low 6-B sarada pre timeskip. Miss me with all that 4-A nonsense
I mean yeah
If I recall correctly, Kodachi made a twitter post sometime last year where he mentioned or implied that Kishimoto had complete control over the anime since he (Kodachi) left.
Boruto goobers pestered him until he deleted it but I think I took a screenshot before that.

 

[AnimesFreak2]

Seems fine to me broski

Nice catch on the Sarada captain statement from the manga

Put me down for agree

[HelloThere1089]

After looking at everything again, I agree. I have not come across any direct contradictions and even then, treating it like secondary canon should work.

 

[Ghostimuscrime]

Agreed, makes no sense for it to stop being canon midway

 

[SlendVeny]

I suppose I have to agree.

Agh, I'm gonna have to watch Boruto now, aren't I?
